Chapter 648 Reap What She Sows
"So, I thought of having my granddaughter take care of me. She agreed then, but after she brought me home, she threatened me with everything she could think of and left shortly after. Not only did she leave, but she didn't prepare any lunch for me. I haven't had dinner yet."
"Ah, I was starving all day, even my blood sugar lowered. Do you know how uncomfortable I was? Later, I called her, but she blocked me. I came to find her, and she threw me out and forbid me to go in. Can you believe there are people like her?"
"You guys tell me, shouldn't people like Sophia be condemned?"
On the live streaming screen, comments started appearing, "I remember this old lady; she's the one who asked Mrs. Riley to kneel down before her in public at the airport."
"Wow. She even openly hit someone and let Sophia carry her away. Considering how much she has bullied Mrs. Riley; how dare she say that Mrs. Riley was the one who did something wrong?"
"In my opinion, once a person is biased, they can do anything. Anyway, I believe Mrs. Riley."
"Me too, Mrs. Riley did nothing wrong. If this old lady didn't do anything far-fetching, how would Mrs. Riley be like that?"
"I support Mrs. Riley. She must stay strong."
"Right, I support Mrs. Riley as well. We should not let people like this old lady enter, and we should even starve her a few meals more."
The old Mrs. Lawson was in the middle of her performance, when Cathy reminded her, "Grandma, it seems that the comments are not in your favor!"
"What? Not in my favor?"
The old Mrs. Lawson looked over, hoping to see comments condemning Sophia, but none appeared. Instead, people were criticizing her.
She tried to explain, "You are all mistaken. It is not what you think it is."
However, the more she tried to explain, the less they believed her. They kept commenting, saying all sorts of offensive things.
The old Mrs. Lawson couldn't argue with so many voices. When she couldn't bear to watch anymore, she ordered, "Turn it off. Turn it off."
Meanwhile, Aria had already noticed that the old lady was live streaming and invited everyone to watch.
When they saw how the old lady reacted, they couldn't help but laugh.
Laura said without mercy, "She's just reaping what she sows. She thought this would make Sophia face public criticism, but she forgot that it was she who caused all this trouble in the first place."
Speaking of that, she looked at Abbott and asked, "Why aren't you saying anything? Do you feel sorry for her?"
Abbott glanced at her and replied, "No, I'm just thinking that it's truly not a good thing for my mother to continue to target Sophia."
"She keeps saying that what happens within a family should not be made public, but she always does these things. It's really frustrating."
About that, Abbott was feeling powerless. He had tried to communicate with his mother, but she had always been like this. There was no way he could reason with her.
None of them had any intention of leaving. The old Mrs. Lawson was still being bitten by mosquitoes, and Cathy didn't want to suffer the same. She said, "Grandma, I think we should leave."
"We will not leave. If we keep staying here, even until tomorrow morning, and they still don't open the door, I don't believe the netizens will still think they are innocent."
"But Grandma, there are too many mosquitoes. They keep biting me." Cathy said while scratching her arms and thighs.
"No, none of us leaves today. We must stay here. I don't believe public opinions cannot be changed."
Bella didn't want to stay here either, but she couldn't say it out loud. She kept making eye contact with William.
Meanwhile, William tried to comfort his mother, "Mom, let's just forget it. Even if the netizens realize you're right, this is Sealand. Drake can still find a way to shut them up. If we stay here and get angry, we'll only hurt ourselves. It won't do any harm to others."
"Don't try to persuade me. I'm staying here. And if any of you dare to leave, that means you are not in the same boat as me. Don't blame me if I don't recognize you anymore."
Bella kept rolling her eyes. But in William's defense, he tried his best to resolve the situation. He had no better ideas now that nothing seemed to work.
However, they hadn't been there long when they heard someone shouting from the other side, "They're still there! Let's go teach these people a lesson!"
The four of them didn't know what was going on, but those people ran toward them and started throwing leaves, tomatoes, and eggs at them.
"How can people like you live in this world? You've been bullying Mrs. Riley all along, and now you're saying that she's been bullying you? We're going to take matters into our own hands today and teach you a lesson!"
There were too many people, and the four of them couldn't stop dodging the attacks.
Cathy kept yelling, "Dad, help me! Help me!"
At this point, no one could save anyone else. They were all struck in trouble.
The old Mrs. Lawson also shouted, "Son, help me. Quickly!"
There was a surveillance camera at the door, and everyone inside was watching. They all wanted to laugh at this ridiculous scene.
As the saying goes, "What goes around comes around." Those people were not brought here by them. Instead, they were brought here by indignation and came voluntarily to offer their help.
At that moment when the four of them dispersed, they truly felt that they deserved it.
Abbott looked apologetically at the in-laws, "I'm really sorry you had to witness this embarrassment of our family!"
Baron said casually, "Ah, there's no one laughing at one another. Aren't we all the same? Whether it was Olivia at the beginning or Lily later on, our family is no different."
Money, everyone knows that it is something we cannot take away when we go to another world, but unfortunately, we cannot resist its temptation and end up doing things like this.
In the middle of the night, Laura received a phone call saying that the old Mrs. Lawson went to the hospital again and they needed to hurry over.
Laura said to William, "Enough of their tricks, we have seen through them long ago. It's already late. Time to go to sleep. If Mom doesn't rest properly, she will lose her strength in a few days."
With that, Laura hung up the phone.
Abbott glanced at her and asked, "Why didn't you block their number?"
"Well, they are still your family. If you block them, it's fine, but if I do, it will be my fault."
Abbott said apologetically, "I'm sorry, it's my fault. You and Sophia have suffered too much."
Laura couldn't help laughing and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? You have always been on our side. Mom has always been like this, there's nothing you can do about it, right?"
